I once tried to watch a Madhur Jaffrey programme on Indian food/cookery but gave up and switched it off as I couldn't hear a word she said through the accompanying Indian music. I was very disappointed.

More recently I have given up listening to the World Service at night because of the noise - surely it isn't music - that intrudes on the news headlines. It's like a sounnd-representation of a thumping headache. The only good thing about it being the relief when it stops.
